Courses
The Leadership Initiative for Faith & Education (LIFE) offers on campus courses at Harvard University where students from varied majors partake in scholarly and community-based courses focused on Faith, Education, and Leadership.

The Leadership Initiative for Faith and Education aims to create effective partnerships between faith-based organizations and public schools to improve student achievement. This program presents a model for building successful partnerships between faith-based organizations and public schools in historically marginalized urban and rural communities. Participants will examine evidence-based information that supports the importance of such partnerships and explore examples of successful collaborations at local, regional, and national levels. Additionally, participants will develop an initial action plan to apply their learnings in their community.

Dr. Irvin Scott is a learner, leader, speaker, author, philanthropist and Harvard educator devoted to teaching doctoral and masters educational leadership as well as founding the Harvard Initiative for Faith and Education (L.I.F.E.).
